New Projects and Challenges

In the course of ITSF 2017 DESY presented its approach to detect Helium leakages in superconducting infrastructure. The test setup, on which the report has been made, delivered promising results. It was therefore decided to take the next step and design a system based on infrared technology to monitor the main LINAC of the European XFEL facility. On the basis of these results, and other...

Technical risks

Announced in the 2017’s ITSF, we would like to give you an update on our now operative IR camera system that detects Helium leaks and fires in the XTL tunnel of the XFEL accelerator. During commissioning we were even able to prove an extended detection range over a few hundred meters for bigger events. We would like to show you some videos and talk about issues we had to face and – also –...
